Chapter 508: Chapter 292: Let Try Again_2
He took Liu Zhiying’s hand, “I ca specifically to check on you.”
“Oh, I see… Let’s do it another ti then.”
Chen Cheng sensed the subtle shift in her emotions, “After I finish up with things here, I’ll co eat with you.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
But soon, the light in Liu Zhiying’s eyes dimd again, “But…”
“But what?”
“The Spring Festival is coming early this year, we’re about to go on winter break.” Liu Zhiying gripped Chen Cheng’s hand tightly, “When that ti cos, Xiao Ya and I will have to go back ho.”
Chen Cheng then rembered that the Spring Festival Gala was near and thus the Spring Festival was upon them.
And as two-tenths of the Liu family, Liu Zhiying and Liu Zhiya were naturally expected to go ho for the New Year.
“It’s good to go back, to reunite with your family and have a joyful New Year.” Chen Cheng comforted her and then looked at Liu Zhiying’s leg, “But how are you going to explain your leg to your parents?”
“I will just say I fell,”
Liu Zhiying pondered for a while, her gaze drifting montarily, then forced a relaxed tone to say: “Anyway, it’s almost healed now, I don’t need dication anymore.”
She paused, then added: “Besides, Xiao Ya will cover for .”
Seeing her feigned ease, Chen Cheng understood that she didn’t want to worry her parents.
“That’s good then. If there’s any problem, call .”
Saying so, Chen Cheng picked up her phone, “Open it.”
Liu Zhiying obediently did as told. Chen Cheng opened her paynt code and transferred a hundred thousand yuan to her.
“Keep this money, let Xiao Ya take you to buy so local specialties to bring back ho. Don’t skimp on travel expenses, take business class if you should, book first-class if needed, and your wheelchair is getting old, go get a new one.”
Liu Zhiying stared at the notification of the received funds on her phone, stunned.
“Brother Cheng, this is too much, I can’t accept it… plus, you’ve already helped so much, I can’t take more money from you…”
Chen Cheng cut her off, “Keep it, don’t make worry, alright?”
Confronted by his authoritative tone, little deer began to prance in Liu Zhiying’s heart.
She nodded gently, “Thank you, Brother Cheng.”
“Still being polite with ?” Chen Cheng pinched her cheek, “Alright, get so rest, I’m going to leave now.”
Just as Chen Cheng stood up, his hand was grabbed.
Turning his head, he t her sowhat panicked eyes, “Is there sothing else?”
“Brother Cheng… I…” Liu Zhiying didn’t know how to start, but her heart had already leapt into her throat, “Can you… can you please get a glass of water?”
Chen Cheng, seeing Liu Zhiying’s slightly flustered eyes and blushing cheeks, understood.
He knew she wasn’t really thirsty; she just wanted an excuse for him to stay a little longer.
He smiled tenderly, “Of course.”
He walked to the water dispenser, poured a cup of warm water, and brought it over to her. “Careful, it’s hot.”
Liu Zhiying took the cup, holding it with both hands, but didn’t drink.
Her head bowed, she spoke softly, “Brother Cheng, I… I have another question.”
“What is it?”
Liu Zhiying hesitated for a mont, “Last ti, the ti you brought here, Xiao Ya told about the things between you and her.”
“And then?”
Liu Zhiying lifted her head, “I just wanted to know… if you could… maybe…feel the sa about … like you do for Xiao Ya?”
Chen Cheng got it in a flash. He smiled and said, “Aren’t you inconvenienced by this?”
“I’m better now. Really, I’ve already recovered!” Liu Zhiying quickly put down the cup, her hands pressing on the wheelchair, desperately trying to stand up.
Chen Cheng saw how much effort it took her, and placed his hands on her shoulders, “Don’t move, or it’ll hurt again.”
He sat down, “Xiao Ying, I’ve never asked you for anything, right?”
“Right.”
“So now I’m asking you, you’ve got to take good care of yourself, don’t think about all this.”
Tears welled up in Liu Zhiying’s eyes as she fought back the urge to cry, “But… I like you.”
“You don’t need to prove it in this way.” Chen Cheng looked at her as she was on the verge of tears, “I know how you feel.”
“But… you’ve already been with Xiao Ya, and I…”
Chen Cheng gave a faint smile, “Don’t worry, you’re just going ho for the winter break, you’re not leaving forever.”
He took Liu Zhiying’s hand, “Stop overthinking, okay?”
Liu Zhiying’s lips quivered, “But… there are so many girls around you, and … I’m like this now…”
Chen Cheng felt a chill in his heart; this was what Liu Zhiying was worried about.
“Did Xiao Ya tell you?”
Liu Zhiying nodded in acknowledgnt.
Chen Cheng squatted in front of her, moving closer, “Xiao Ying, you and Xiao Ya an different things to . I admit, Xiao Ya and I have had an intimate relationship, but that doesn’t an I’m eager to have sothing happen with you.”
“And you can rest assured, even if nothing happens between us, I wouldn’t feel it’s a loss,” Chen Cheng reassured.
“But… but!”
Liu Zhiying couldn’t control herself any longer, tears streaming down as she choked out, “But… I want it! I want you to treat like you did Xiao Ya! I also want…”
Ashad, she lowered her head, her voice getting softer and nearly inaudible.
“I know what’s in your heart, but now really isn’t the ti. Your leg hasn’t fully recovered, and I don’t want you to force yourself for .”
Liu Zhiying cried even harder, clutching tightly at Chen Cheng’s clothes, “Brother Cheng, do you… do you dislike ?”
“How could I?” Chen Cheng gently wiped away her tears, “You’re so outstanding, so beautiful, and you’re sincere towards , how could I not like you?”
“Then you… then let … just once… try it…”
Hearing her incoherent words, Chen Cheng kissed those trembling lips.
Liu Zhiying tensed up, her eyes firmly shut.
She hadn’t expected Chen Cheng to suddenly kiss her, and she was caught off guard, her mind blank, with only her heart pounding violently in her chest as if it were about to burst forth.
She wrapped her arms around Chen Cheng’s neck, but the very next second, she felt like her hands shouldn’t be there.
“Brother Cheng… I don’t really know how… what should I do…” Liu Zhiying murmured.
…
…
Forty minutes later, Liu Zhiying lay in Chen Cheng’s arms, “Brother Cheng, did I fail to please you?”
“Not at all, it was very good,” Chen Cheng said with a smile: “I was afraid of hurting you.”
Liu Zhiying began to sob pitifully.
She, who had achieved nurous proud academic accomplishnts, never expected to fall short in this matter.
“It really was good.”
Chen Cheng gently kissed away the tears on her face, his tone tender and firm, “Xiao Ying, you don’t need to push yourself to please . I like you not because I want to possess you, but because of who you are.”
He held her even tighter, his chin resting on her forehead, softly saying, “To , your health and happiness are what matter most.”
Listening to his words, Liu Zhiying knew that Chen Cheng truly cared for her, cherished her.
“Brother Cheng, thank you for caring about so much.”
Chen Cheng patted her back, “What’s there to thank for? Even though it didn’t work out, you still tried.”
Liu Zhiying’s face turned even redder as she hugged Chen Cheng, “Then when my leg is better, can I…”
“You can do whatever you want,” Chen Cheng said with a laugh: “But before that, you need to heal properly, okay?”
Liu Zhiying nodded in his arms, her muffled voice coming through, “Mhm.”
Chen Cheng stroked her soft long hair, feeling her tall fra, “Not overthinking anymore?”
“I was wrong, Brother Cheng, I won’t dare to overthink again,” Liu Zhiying snuggled closer into Chen Cheng’s embrace, “I know you want what’s best for .”
Chen Cheng turned his head to look at that innocent face, “That’s good.”
“It’s about ti, I should go,” Chen Cheng let go of her and got up from the bed.
Liu Zhiying bit her lip, her eyes filled with reluctance, “Yeah.”
“If you miss , just tell .” Chen Cheng looked at her pitiable appearance, lifting her chin.
Liu Zhiying looked up, eting his gentle gaze, “Brother Cheng, if you leave like this… could I… try again.”
After she spoke,
Liu Zhiying nervously tossed her black hair to one side, and that innocent and tender face cautiously neared the gleaming Hers belt buckle.
